The security of a country can be affected due to lack of food, and it is even more serious because it can threaten global stability. Rice is a staple food that is a security crop in Malaysia. Although various initiatives are being worked on until now the level of rice self-sufficiency has never reached 100 percent. Current conditions driven by the uncertainty of the political climate and international security make the issue of food security more serious. This study focuses on the literature of food security in Malaysia. This research aims to present a holistic view of food security in Malaysia and its impact on human security. Using a systematic literature review approach with 20 books, journal articles, and papers, this research identified the non-competitive food in the commodity-based agricultural sector in Malaysia due to its inability to supply food.
